Greetings, my friends.
I am writing you from Cuenca, Ecuador. What a blessing it is to be able to come and serve God on foreign soil.
I am actually working on a church facility near Tambo, high in the Andes Mountains.
Words cannot express the beauty and tranquility of this place. The people are reminiscient of their Incan relatives of the past. The women wear very bright colored dresses and the men typically wear fancy hats.
Nearly everyone grows their own food in the form of cattle, sheep, goats and chickens.

The Hilltop Trio will be in concert at 10 a.m., followed by regular worship services at 11 and a potluck luncheon immediately following services.
“Those who have not visited in some time should make plans to attend, as the church has been blessed to be able to make lots of improvements to the building and grounds, including paving our parking area,” event organizers said.

Cynthia Finnell, Talitha McGoff and Erich Steilberg, children of Carolyn and Richard Steilberg, planned a surprise celebration for their parents’ 50th anniversary.

The couple was married Aug. 17, 1962.
